Each odor activates a different combination of sensors, which in turn activates a different odor detector in the mushroom body.
That caused a strengthening of the connections between the currently active odor detector and the motors.
And he happened to tell me about a conference he'd just returned from in Israel, where they were talking about a new type of gamma detector.
But Michael told me about a new type of gamma detector that he'd seen, and this is it.
It's made not of a bulky tube, but of a thin layer of a semiconductor material that serves as the gamma detector.
And I started talking to him about this problem with breast density, and we realized that we might be able to get this detector close enough around the breast to actually find small tumors.
But using our new detector, we could begin to see the outline of a tumor.
This is our current detector.
The duct tape is gone, and we added a second detector on top of the breast, which has further improved our tumor detection.
And the detector then transmits the image to the computer.
If you go through a metal detector, you'll probably die.
This is a radar speed detector that was developed from a Hot Wheels toy.
So they go deep inside mines to find a kind of environmental silence that will allow them to hear the ping of a dark matter particle hitting their detector.
And not only integrate a photo detector here, but maybe use the camera inside.
Now, this happens so reliably and so on cue, as the brain's face detector, that we've even given this brain-wave component a name.
If I showed you this detector, you would be likely to think to begin with that the way to make the detector go would be to put a block on top of the detector.
But actually, this detector works in a bit of a strange way.
Because if you wave a block over the top of the detector, something you wouldn't ever think of to begin with, the detector will actually activate two out of three times.
Whereas, if you do the likely thing, put the block on the detector, it will only activate two out of six times.
And sure enough, the four year-olds used the evidence to wave the object on top of the detector.
It's a nanomaterial, two nanomaterials, a detector and an imager.
Now the amygdala is our early warning detector, our danger detector.
I developed a detector that replaces the current detectors that Homeland Security has.
The reason is, we have sort of a built-in poison detector.
I'm saving you some brain activity, because you don't need to use your hair detector cells.
Having only one kind of light detector doesn't leave any room for seeing color.
To see those traces, our detector, with 150 million sensors, acts like a really massive 3-D camera, taking a picture of each collision event - that's up to 14 millions times per second.
So after decades of development, construction and imagination and a breathtaking amount of hard work, they built their detector, called LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.
And on September 14 of 2015, just days after the detector had gone live, the gravitational waves from those colliding black holes passed through the Earth.
And they passed through the detector.
